A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.
UK conceptual/ drone/ noise artist, who is seriously posing what might seem to be unanswerable questions of music.
Do art forms like black radical poetry, free jazz and improvisation create a space for the performance of freedom? Did they ever? And can they still do so now?
Personal Spaces: inversion of a territorial bell, confusing the realms between rehearsal and performance, public and private space.
With a signature spartan sound and long term preoccupation in structural tactics (subtle shifts in density, drawn out stasis) Polwechsel blur the boundaries between individual instruments.

Life and death dramas unfold in the snowy American North, using three-screen documentary footage and a soundtrack by KYTN favourite, vocalist Daniel Menche.
A back and forth between Fred and Fernando on the transits and obstructions between mathematics and poetics, and how both help us to think from the other side.
The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
Black Boned Angel’s is a rock sound, stripped of all extraneous detail right down to its core, stretched out and nailed to the ceiling.
Noise music for the eyes: projectors turned into instruments, B&W film loops into a thrumming riot of colour, motion and sound.
